Start Jamming...
I got a little swift towards the end.
All right.
What would y'all like to hear?
Any [D] special?
The Fugitive?
All right.
We'll go into what is known [G] as our prison segment.
We'll dedicate it especially.
[Em] Right.
We'll do it especially for all the shut-in friends
over at the county jail.
[G]
The Fugitive.
You got it right there.
Down every [C] road there's always one [D] more thing.
[C] I'm on the run.
[D] The highway [G] is my home.
I raised a [C] lot of cane back in [D] my younger days.
[C] While Mama used [D] to pray my crops [G] would fail.
Now I'm a [C] fugitive [D] with just two ways.
[C] Out run the law [D] or spend my life [G] in jail.
I'd like to settle [C] down, but they [D] won't let me.
[C] A fugitive must be a [D] rolling stone.
[G] Down every [C] road there's always one [D] more city.
[C] I'm on the run.
[D] The highway [G] is my home.
